General Information: This strain (2300/99 Alcoy) belongs to serogroup 1 and is considered endemic in Spanish areas. It was isolated from a patient affected by legionellosis in Alcoy (Spain). One of the most important outbreaks was registered in Murcia (Spain) in 2001, when more than 751 cases of suspected Legionellosis were registered.
